POSTED: 6:43 pm MST April 16, 2008

A 54-year-old parolee accidentally left nine baggies of methamphetamine at the counter at Wal-Mart, police said.

Daniel Santos Ramirez was checking out on Sunday when he left his wallet, a pouch containing packaged meth, and $420 at the counter, Officer Dale Eubanks said, reported KCRA-TV in Sacramento, Calif.

The clerk called police with his identification, and officers found out that Ramirez was on parole for drug sales.

Ramirez was arrested at his home later that day.

Police said they found a shotgun and drug-related items at his house.

Ramirez was due to get off parole Wednesday, Eubanks said.

He was booked on various charges.
